"The church doesn't have a mission. Our mission has a church."
~ Alan Hirsh
I was convicted today that I haven't preached, taught, written or blogged enough on our vision and mission at Connections. One of the key words I'll often use is to say we are "missional."
I tell myself most folks get that, but really, have I even explained it?
Being missional is a way of being for a church community.
It encompasses how we do worship, compassion, social justice, community service, and so much more. It really is an all-encompassing way of being.
It's something that must characterize a whole community of people.
But it must characterize each individual who is a part of that community.
To be continued tomorrow...
